I cannot begin to describe how frightening this is-for individuals and for society. To willfully ignore true threats to lives while giving credence to hyperbolic rhetoric is the stuff of what used to be fiction but is now reality. I live thousands of miles away but, Holly, please let me know how I can help. I would write letters but if they won’t listen to their own citizens....... I want to help. This is beyond terrifying.
Good Morning, thanks for the city council follow-up. do you believe that the stickering campaigns are helpful in changing opinion or bolstering/promoting the truth and reality of things? if so, does the person making the stickers have an online store (or is there another we could use).
Here in Calgary, the city enacted an "safe and inclusive access" bylaw:
The bylaw deals with “specific protests” that disapprove of ideas or actions related to “race, religious beliefs, colour, gender, gender identity, gender expression, physical disability, mental disability, age, ancestry, place of origin, marital status, source of income, family status or sexual orientation.”
It prohibits protests related to this list within 100 metres of the entrances of certain city-owned buildings, including all Calgary Public Library locations, and all city-owned or city-affiliated rec centres.
this was in response to people protesting the Drag queen story hour at publicly funded libraries.
"What the mayor and City Council of Burlington did on March 13, 2023, is actual stochastic terrorism. This is demonstrated by the stark contrast between what they condemn and what they refuse to condemn—the contrast between the rhetoric they nod approvingly at, calling gay men “threats to public health,” and the rhetoric they condemn, statements of fact about biological reality."
If this is how they think the world works (ideas are violence), then they are flat out confessing what they intend to do when they have power. As Lindsay says, The Iron Law of Woke Projection Never Misses.
We have let the left define the terms of all debate for decades and this, like a mathematical law, is the certain, expected & unavoidable result.
•They redefine norms:
The norm is no longer one’s chromosomes. The norms no longer are provable. The norms no longer reflect natural law, but relativism. This was observed back in the 1970’s with the “sexual revolution.” People wondered then where the slippery slope of relativism would lead.
•They accuse their political opponents of that which they do. In my local newspaper in a sleepy town in NC (to which we moved to get away from the politically correct DC metro area), a recent letter to editor decried how people define “woke.” Now that people are starting to see the harm in wokeness, the left is aggressively trying to redefine it. The apparently liberal writer insisted that “woke” is an innocuous term of awareness. But I bet that same writer would NOT accept an equally innocuous definitive of “MAGA” from a conservative. A definition in which MAGA = simply making America great.
Folks we must:
•reclaim the language
•Don’t let people put you in boxes. I was surprised at how often one’s sexuality was referred to in Holly’s article, but I understand why that is done so often these days. But I see it as an apology to the left “Oh but Im gay so there’s that & my opinion means more.” Resist this- ALL are created equal & have equal standing to contribute.
It doesn’t or shouldn’t freaking matter what I do in bed… now lets just debate the PHILOSOPHICAL points.
Thank you for this important information Holly! I feel like the Zombie apocalypse is upon us!
What it really is, in my grand opinion, is UN Agenda 21 in action. The great Rosa Koire, a former dem, a Californian AND a lesbian, did the first important work on this. She died suddenly, just before they rolled out the scamdemic. She was telling way too much Truth. Find her videos talking to folks in New Hampshire on Youtube, Parts 1 - 5 and another, Parts 1 - 6. She wrote a book called Behind the Green Mask, on what is behind the "green agenda". If it is green at all, it is soylently green. :(
Sandi Adams, found in a series of interviews on UKColumn.org, has taken up the torch from Rosa, and is the current expert on UN Agenda 21.
Rosa mentions an organization called ICKLE, which local politicians and power brokers can secretly join. It is the stealth implementation of the Global Slave Plantation, done by our friends and neighbors, who get bought out, or compromised in some other way. Mayors have also signed international agreements, the latest being to implement the 15 minute cities, the stepping stone to smart cities.
Part of Agenda 21, is the terrorizing of dissenters. James Corbett did a recent article called The Weaponization of Psychiatry against us "crazy conspiracy theorists". The hardest thing to swallow, for those of the True Left, not the Fake Left, currently running roughshod over sanity, is that these are the people, whom we once aligned with. Gosh, my dear old dad was right.
Cultural Marxism, with its identity politics and evisceration of morality, deeply ensconced in the halls of academia, is the chosen tool for destruction of our society and our nation. We must continue to fight, continue to tell the truth. According to psychologist Matthias Desmond, an expert on Mass Hypnosis, or Mass Formation, if we allow ourselves to be silenced, the inmates will be left to run the asylum, and they WILL KILL US.

Great writing, and terrific analysis. You hit the nail on the head! Thank you.
This stochastic terrorism that you call out is a feature, not a bug, of the “Critical Consciousness” that is “woke” (see James Lindsay).
Woke is a modern day religious movement, which grants its adherents the ability to magically see and measure oppressor/oppressed relationships everywhere. In this case, you and your friends are the oppressor (e.g. sinners), and the trans “community” is the oppressed.
In response, the woke “problematize” (e.g. deconstruct, tear down) humanity’s foundational structures, language, sciences, practices and laws, in order to somehow rebuild them. In this case, so that the woke sinners may be punished, the members of the City Council have institutionally abandoned their obligation to law and order and peaceful civil discourse and, like Pontius Pilate, yielded their authority to the mob.
Sooner or later reality (economic, biological, mathematical, social) will bear down and inexorably starve this particular religious tree of oxygen and life (although its Marxist roots will remain, to spawn new foul issue in the future). What is most dismaying to me is envisioning the amount of damage that will be wrought in the years, possibly decades, until that happens.
Thank you for writing this. It's still stunning that it's real, and it matters a lot to me that anyone at all cares. You can't count on the people around you to be anything close to morally normal anymore. Or even to notice that anything at all is wrong.
People joke about "thoughts and prayers" but when you are, as I am, half a world away there isn't much else I can offer so you and Josh & co have that. But as @fiestynca says if there is anything concrete I can do don't be shy to ask.
This is an excellent post. Brilliant dissection of the injustice and danger being perpetrated by the town. You may appreciate the relevance of this piece (now 23 years old).
Real inclusion doesn't involve turning a PERSON into a druggie and inflicting irreversible physical violence upon them.
Now, Mr, Mrs, Ms Deluded Fucktard. What should the response be to someone doing or advocating such after you have given them the obligatory three warnings they are out of order and outlaw? No, no, don't huff, puff, and deflect - What would YOU do or advocate? What you have already done or advocated, no?
Say after me "I am out of order and outlaw." No?
Say after me "I am out of order and outlaw." No?
Say after me "I am out of order and outlaw." No?
Okay; that is your obligatory three warnings. I am now going to beat you to a bloody pulp and set you on fire.
Tolerance of the intolerant has to go; it has no place in civil discourse anymore. We are many; they are few. So lets beat the living shit out of them and be done.

I’m horrified. I really don’t know what else to say. I will help monetarily however I can.
What about reaching out to someone like Matt Walsh or Megan Kelly , talking heads with large platforms and sharing this with them?

Enjoy your articles, Holly.
I think you need my number because I worry too.

“I don't know what you mean by 'glory,'" Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you don't---till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'"
"But glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument,'" Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean---neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "Which is to be master---that's all."
